LOEWE For its Spring Summer 2017 menswear collection, LOEWE, the Spanish luxury house, is proud to release a free extended version of the exclusive hardcover publication it produces every season.
Shot in Ibiza, the Balearic island that was one of Creative Director Jonathan Anderson's inspirational starting points for his reconfiguration of LOEWE, the #LOEWESS17 publication completes a narrative cycle that has run through previous seasons, imagining the adventure of two young characters isolated in a natural locale.

LOEWE LOEWE Publication No.14

This digital version of the exclusive hardcover publication features additional content shot on location at the Fernando Higueras Foundation.

Filmed inside his secluded suburban house, Fernando Higueras’ Cave, unites two heartfelt testimonies to the late Spanish architect and his unique subterranean residence.

Higueras’ photographer and life companion, Lola Botia, appears on film for the very first time to reflect on the magic of her home and its creator. Joining her is Professor Josemaria Churtichaga who, as a student of Higueras’ whimsically-designed primary school, grew up to become his disciple, collaborator, and a renowned architect in his own right.

Sitting beneath the skylights, the pair illuminate Higueras’ enduring humanity with a poignant glimpse into a life lived underground.

LOEWE Continuing the series of exclusive editions it has published since 2014, LOEWE is releasing a new publication documenting the latest collection designed for the house by Jonathan Anderson.
Publication No. 12 features acclaimed British actress Charlotte Rampling and model Kiki Willems in twelve looks from the LOEWE ready-to-wear collection for Spring Summer 2017, styled by Benjamin Bruno and photographed by Jamie Hawkesworth inside and outside of Paris’ Maison de l’UNESCO the day before the brand’s runway show at that location.

LOEWE With LOEWE: THIS IS HOME, the brand presents its most comprehensive foray to date into homewear, an investigation of novel forms for the interior, articulated through a mix of materials, hands, techniques and cultural references.

THIS IS HOME places a special focus on finding innovative convincing functionalities for leather, the house’s core material. Taking cues from various art practices and reinterpreting gleaned ideas in a new medium, the majority of objects were manufactured by the house’s workshops in collaboration with selected European craft partners.

LOEWE Ibiza: Close to Paradise features 12 iconic places and 16 prominent personalities that have each left an indelible mark on the island.Illustrated with specially sourced vintage photography from the 60s, 70s, and 80s, and featuring embedded audio interviews from the inexhaustible Italian go-go dancer Anna Maria ‘Noche y Día’; to Pacha founder Ricardo Urgell; legendary hotelier Tony Pike, and a colourful cast of other hippies, heavyweights, and hospitable Ibicencos – the guide serves as a kaleidoscopic insight into why Ibiza has attracted free-spirited souls for centuries.For LOEWE, the free-spirited Balearic air has fostered a long-lasting connection with Ibiza. Grounded by shared Spanish values and Creative Director Jonathan Anderson’s own childhood visits to the island, this special bond is further sealed by the release of Ibiza: Close to Paradise which invites people to rediscover – and dance the night away to – Ibiza’s eminent energy.

LOEWE For Fall/Winter 2016 Jonathan Anderson explored how to articulate familiar silhouettes against an abstract, ostensibly natural world. The result is an exaggerated normality, manifest in garments and accessories that have been blown up to become bigger versions of themselves.
Oversized, hyper-relaxed silhouettes in earthly primeval colours permeate the collection, as does a calm, cosy feel most evident in slouchy sleepwear-inspired hats. Standout pieces include long knitted colour-block cardigans inspired by an early 19th century Indonesian scarf motif and pterodactyl print silk shirts.

LOEWE’S material expertise is present in pure denim looks made from a canvas fabric woven from scratch, as well as leather pieces that trick the eye to think they’re denim. A recurring Sunrise print underscores the positive outlook of the house at the dawn of a new year.

The publication was shot in Cuenca, Spain.

LOEWE LOEWE’s latest publication is made in collaboration with Duane Michals, one of the great photographic innovators of the last century, widely known for his work with series, multiple exposures, and text.

Michals created twelve separate photographic sequences featuring model Erik Frey as the subject of a series of magic tricks conducted by the British actor and LOEWE campaign star Josh O’Connor. Photographed in the Teatro Reina Victoria in Madrid, Spain, the images contextualise the collection within Michals’ whimsical oeuvre, assuming the Surrealist tenets of pantomime to dramatic effect.

This digital version of the exclusive hardcover publication features an exclusive interview filmed on location with Michals and O’Connor.

Fumiko Imano’s practice focuses on self-portraiture across photography, video
and installation. Her ‘Twins’ series is a reaction to settling in Hitachi, Japan, after
spending her childhood in Brazil and early adulthood in London and Paris. Feeling alone, Imano began to cut and paste 35mm self-portraits to create seemingly-candid collages of herself in the company of an imaginary twin sister.
Photographed on location on the grounds of Paris’ Maison de l’UNESCO on the day before the last runway presentation, Publication #17 captures Imano’s ‘Twins’ revelling in the freedom of a French holiday in tandem with model Saskia de Brauw, jousting with a baguette, and hiding amongst the sculptures of the building’s gardens in a series of looks styled by Benjamin Bruno.

This digital version of the exclusive hardcover publication features a filmed interview with Imano.

LOEWE The 20th installment in the house’s ongoing series of seasonal publications is the second to be photographed by artist Fumiko Imano, best known for playful images featuring herself alongside a fictional twin.

Shot in various rooms of Maison de l’UNESCO in Paris, Publication #20 showcases a series of looks from the collection shown at the same location in March, worn by Liya Kebede and Imano and styled by Benjamin Bruno.

LOEWE LOEWE presents a second collection with the legendary boutique Paula’s Ibiza, continuing the women’s and men’s Ready-To-Wear and accessories collaboration that fuses bohemian coastal dressing with Paula’s playful
prints.

To capture the spirit of the collection, LOEWE collaborated with M/M Paris and Gray Sorrenti to produce a hardcover publication. Shot in New Orleans, USA, the street-cast images transport the free-wheeling beach spirit of Ibiza to America’s deep south.

The digital version of this publication includes a series of films shot on location by Gray’s childhood friend and videographer Jack Irv.

“I took a bag of film, my camera, Jack and my Mom. We landed in the late afternoon at the Louis Armstrong International Airport in New Orleans, Louisiana—we were the first to arrive. New Orleans humidity hits you like a ton of bricks as you step off
of the plane. Just like the weather, the vibe and the accents are heavy, moist, warm and welcoming. It makes me ask myself, “Why don’t I come here more often?” We jumped into the car and rolled down the windows, letting the warm breeze in. The radio tuned us into the sweet sounds of WWOZ. Slowly catching feelings, we proceeded down old Airline Highway, making our way to the French Quarter. We drove under the Claiborne underpass, up Poydras, and hooked a left onto Royal Street. It felt good to be back. Somehow New Orleans just makes me breathe a little deeper.” – Gray Sorrenti.
